Charles Baudelaire (1821 - 1867), a contemporary of Victor Hugo, is arguably one of the most influential French writers of all time. He was equally skilled in writing both prose and poetry and his subject matter was wide and varied. He had a strange life and was eccentric to say the least and spent time in India with the East India Company. All of these experiences plus his turbulent family life fuelled his talent and ideas as a writer. This book contains all his known work, skilfully translated by James Huneker.
